Simone Biles’ tongue slip caused a blunder

In her latest episode of Daring Simone Biles, Tara challenged her to be a host during her show. At the start of the episode, she showed her nervousness. Simone said, “I think what makes me most nervous is usually I come in, and the crowd says, ‘hey Simone, you are great no matter what happens. And then I leave. Now, this is my show, and it’s the scary part.”
